This class comes originally from Sonic Visualiser. There is a version updated for Qt5 (using QNetworkAccessManager) in the SV source tree, see http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/svcore/repository/entry/data/fileio/FileSource.h and .cpp. The purpose of the class is to provide the same "file handle" abstraction for files opened locally and URLs opened from remote locations. It is used in for example RosegardenMainWindow::openURL(). I updated Sonic Visualiser to Qt5 a little while back and it was fairly straightforward, though Rosegarden would certainly be harder. I just counted five #ifdefs against Qt version 5 or higher in the SV code -- with these it has continued to work fine with Qt4, and I no longer pay much attention to whether I'm building against Qt4 or Qt5 on any given machine as it doesn't seem to make much difference.
